This Woman Got To Wear A Colander On Her Head In Her License Photo

A Massachusetts woman legally won the right to wear a colander on her head for her driver's license photo.

According to CBS Boston, Massachusetts Registry of Motor Vehicles (RMV) does not permit hats in license photos unless the head covering is for religious or medical reasons.

So when Lindsay Miller asked to wear a metal spaghetti strainer in her photo, the RMV denied her request.

But a friend of Miller's reached out to the American Humanist Association, which then filed an administrative appeal.

Miller is a Pastafarian, a member of the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster.

In a press release, the American Humanist Association said the satirical group mocks traditional religious observance by purporting the existence of a flying beast made of pasta is "just as probable as the existence of the Christian God."

A hearing for the appeal was scheduled, but the RMV reversed its decision on Thursday before the issue went to court.
